Randy - 
 
  I'm not advocating for any policy; Milton said he believes we need 
  a globally harmonized IPv4 trading policy, one that imposes uniform 
  conditions on all buyers and sellers in all regions.  I was simply 
  noting that there's nothing that prevents those who want such a policy
  from working on it in either regional or global fora, but in that in
  the meantime it appears there are already existing draft policies in 
  the RIPE region to be considered.
